Vuvuzela v Lambeg Drum

Pól Ó Muirí

A thousand vuvuzelas against a thousand Lambeg Drums. Who would cause the most noise? My money would be on the drums which are beginning to boom out across my wee corner of planet earth in anticipation of the 12th. Perhaps we can get our own back on African supporters by making sure that the next world cup is drowned out by Lambegs and flute bands: “Bloody Europeans and their drums! They are spoiling the football!”
